Trump's "Clean Coal" Does Not Actually Exist. We have a choice between Really Really Really Bad Pollution or Really Bad Pollution at High Cost.

Even With Political Bribery... The Fundamental Failure of COAL as a source of Electric Power is Undeniable... Wind, Solar have Initial Startup Costs and then TRULY FREE Operation from then on... The Wind Blows Forever... The Sun Shines Forever... and if they STOP, we have bigger problems than How to Create Electricity... https://www.treehugger.com/fossil-fuels/murray-energy-goes-bankrupt.html

Not only does it create FREE Electricity but it

 Murray Energy's "Wish List" became Trump's TO-DO List... Obvious Bribery... One Million Dollar Donation Buys Trump's Support of Coal Mining Businesses... and then in October 2019 - Murray Energy goes bankrupt... 

What Trump doesn't understand is that if we dig up coal in the USA and sell it overseas, when they burn the coal the pollution still causes climate change here at home. It's GLOBAL... just exporting the coal doesn't fix the underlying problem... air pollution causes Climate Change GLOBALLY.

So, Why is Trump Promoting Coal? What's His Motivation for Destroying the Planet? Obvious Bribery... Robert Murray donated ONE Million Dollars to Trump's Election PAC and $300,000 to the Inaugural Committee...

Headline: 

How a Coal Baron’s Wish List Became President Trump’s To-Do List...

President Trump’s first year in office has been a boon for the coal industry, with the Trump administration rolling back regulations on coal-fired power plants and withdrawing the United States from the Paris climate change agreement.

Environmentalists have expressed alarm at the new direction, and have complained that Mr. Trump was following a blueprint from the coal industry. A confidential memo written by the head of the country’s largest coal mining company suggests they might not be wrong.

The memo was written by Robert E. Murray, a longtime Trump supporter who donated $300,000 to the president’s inauguration. In it, Mr. Murray, the head of Murray Energy, presented Mr. Trump with a wish list of environmental rollbacks just weeks after the inauguration. 

The March 1, 2017 memo, signed by Murray and addressed to Vice President Mike Pence, lists 14 requests, including the elimination of the Obama-era Clean Power Plan; a United States withdrawal from the Paris climate change agreement; and at least a 50 percent cut to the staff at the Environmental Protection Agency. Other major overhauls include “a withdrawal and suspension” of the endangerment finding, a landmark EPA determination requiring the agency to regulate carbon emissions, and eliminating a federal tax credit for windmills and solar panels.


“Enclosed is an Action Plan for the Administration of President Donald J. Trump, which will help in getting America’s coal miners back to work,” Murray writes in the memo. “We are available to assist you and your Administration in any way that you request.”

Headline: A Coal Giant Gave $1 Million to Donald Trump’s Super PAC As It Sought Help From Trump. Robert Murray needed the government’s help. So he wrote a massive check.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-29/what-is-trump-s-clean-coal-and-does-it-even-exist 
“Clean coal is a deliberately misleading term,” said Lauri Myllyvirta, a senior analyst at Greenpeace’s air pollution unit. “In the context of cutting greenhouse-gas emissions, there are two kinds of coal: far too polluting, and far too expensive.”



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_coal_technology
According to the Sierra Club, "Despite the industry's hype, there's no such thing as 'clean coal.' But new technologies and policies can help reduce coal plants' deadly emissions."[26]
https://vault.sierraclub.org/sierra/200701/coal.asp
COAL IS A POWER PLAYER, generating more than half of the electricity and about 22 percent of the energy produced in the United States. But it is also dirty and destructive: Entire mountaintops are removed to get at it; emissions from coal-fired power plants contribute to at least 24,000 premature deaths a year in this country alone; and it accounts for 36 percent of our overall releases of carbon dioxide, the main culprit in global warming. Despite the industry's hype, there's no such thing as "clean coal." But new technologies and policies can help reduce coal plants' deadly emissions, including carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, mercury, and nitrogen oxides.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-29/what-is-trump-s-clean-coal-and-does-it-even-exist
Headline: The Myth of Donald Trump’s ‘Beautiful Clean Coal’.
While the U.S. president advocates for the most polluting fossil fuel, a shrinking number of power companies see a future for it.

In the U.S., the only large clean-coal plant is NRG Energy Inc.’s Big Cajun II facility built with Mitsubishi technology in Louisiana. It includes a carbon-capture system that also reduces emissions of sulfur, mercury, nitrogen oxide and particulates. Southern Co. abandoned the clean-coal section of its $7.5 billion Kemper plant in Mississippi after cost overruns and problems building structures that could withstand temperatures above 900 degrees.

At AES Corp., a utility based in Arlington, Virginia, that operates power plants of all kinds in 15 countries, Chief Executive Officer Andres Gluski has been winding down his company’s commitment to coal mainly because of cost. In the past year, he’s sold or closed 4.5 gigawatts of coal plants and built 3 gigawatts of renewable-energy capacity. A gigawatt is about as much as a single nuclear reactor produces.

“You need 20 years just to pay off the debt,” Gluski said. “Where do you think that makes sense? We don’t see any new coal in the U.S. That’s the bottom line.”

It Focuses my attention to realize that I could die in a Wildfire this Summer. I Live near Sacramento, California in a Wooded Neighborhood and... Just Like Last Year in Paradise...

 and Just Like The Year Before in Santa Rosa... and the year before in Redding... MY HOME IS IN A DANGER ZONE and my own extinction is possible due to Wildfires caused by Global Warming. Already it has gone over 100 Degrees Fahrenheit... and it's only JUNE... and there is an active fire right now halfway between my home and Clear Lake... in Yolo County... THANKFULLY, ALL MY AFFAIRS ARE IN ORDER... and I have already accomplished everything I wanted to do with my life... https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/06/it-focuses-my-attention-to-realize-that.html

Here are ALL THE WORDS to the SUMMARY of the Mueller Report. It's a SHORT Read and Clearly Explains What Happened with Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election. EVERYONE OUGHT TO READ THIS.

While the complete Mueller Report is over 400 pages and JUST TOO LONG FOR ME TO READ... This SUMMARY is Short and Explains what I want to know. 

Briefly: Russia Campaigned for Trump. Trump Campaigned for Trump. There was A LOT of Communication between the Trump People and Russians. MANY OF TRUMP'S PEOPLE WENT TO PRISON. However, there was no ABSOLUTE evidence that the Trump People and The Russians coordinated their efforts. They worked separately to achieve the same goal. 

It looks like Trump and His People Obstructed Justice. They took many actions in order to COVER UP their Criminal Behavior and interfere with the investigation. To this day they are still preventing the TRUTH from being released to Congress or the American People. The new Attorney General, William [Chicken] Barr Redacted the Official Mueller Report by CROSSING OUT WITH A THICK BLACK FELT PEN EVERYTHING THAT MADE TRUMP LOOK GUILTY. And then he Publicized a Totally False Conclusion. A major stumbling block to this investigation is that there is a Justice Department Opinion Paper that says The President Cannot be Arrested for a Crime WHILE HE IS PRESIDENT... No Matter What Crime he commits... So, Trump loudly proclaims: "SEE, NO ARREST, THEREFORE I'M INNOCENT.  Well, that's not actually true. Most people who actually READ the Mueller report says there WAS A CRIME... But the Justice Department Opinion Paper prevents Trump from being Arrested. No One has Challenged that Opinion Justice Department in Court. It might be totally bogus... 

More and More people are calling for Trump's Impeachment. The problem is that While the House of Representatives has enough votes to START Impeachment Proceedings... There are NOT ENOUGH VOTES IN THE SENATE to CONVICT TRUMP AND REMOVE HIM FROM OFFICE. The Democrats are moving forward slowly with more and more televised hearings and more subpoenas and more document requests in order to explain to the American Public that Impeachment is a Good Idea. When the Public is convinced and a Majority support Impeachment... we can expect the Republicans to Suddenly FLIP... and support Impeachment too. Because... that only really care about getting re-elected... High Pay, Lot's of Secret Bribes, Easy Work and Great Health Benefits, Vacation Days and Status!

There is one seldom spoken about benefit to ACTUALLY IMPEACHING TRUMP. It would make Trump Angry. It is entirely possible that he could suffer a Stroke or Heart Attack during a Raging Tweet Storm... Impeachment is only one way to get Trump out of the White House. Carrying him out on a Stretcher would work too... Then Evil Mike Pence would become President... and he would appoint some Lunatic to be Vice President... WHEE! 

READ THE REPORT SUMMARY HERE: https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/06/here-are-all-words-to-summary-of.html

This is what Socialism Looks Like: Trump announced $16 Billion in WELFARE PAYMENTS to Farmers That are Harmed by His Insane Trade War.

When Obama was President, Farmers earned a living by Growing and Selling Crops. 

People ask: Where will all this Money come from? Well, from MORE Deficit Spending! Since Trump's Tax Cut for the Rich Law is Currently Failing to Collect Enough to Pay for the Cost of the US Government, we are Increasing the National Debt in Hopes that YOUR Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren and Great-Great Grandchildren will pay for it all... This Year had the Largest Deficit in History... and Now Trump wants to Make a $16 Billion Welfare Payment to Farmers and a $19 Billion Dollar Payment for Disaster Relief... The Midwest is experiencing Record Tornado Damage and Flooding due to Climate Change... and The West needs help for Wildfires... and and and... This Summer we Expect More of the Same! More Wildfires, More Tornadoes, More Hurricanes and More Floods...

So the Chinese plan to stop selling RARE EARTH MINERALS that are required to make Electronic Gizmos... Well, so Freaking What! From now on I'm buying used...

History has proved it to be a Horrible Waste of American Lives and Taxpayer Dollars. So Mayor Pete went to Afghanistan... Well, What The FORK did he Accomplish? The only thing we have done in Afghanistan is INCREASE THE OPIUM CROP YIELD... Thanks, Pete...

CLEAN AIR AND WATER ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO AMERICAN VOTERS and Trump is Causing a Disaster that will do Harm for Decades, maybe Hundreds of Years.

 His campaign consultants told him that he is unpopular with Young People and Women... Therefore, today he made a speech with Cabinet Secretaries Perry and Wheeler telling lies to the People of the USA about how wonderful their Environmental Policy is. FACT CHECK: IT IS NOT WONDERFUL!

What I say at Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings. My "Share." ---> Hi, I'm Greg and I'm and Alcoholic... and then I say...

I got into AA in the year 2000. I was living in Chico, CA at a Motel after getting fired from my job and getting evicted in San Jose. On New Years Eve, I was drinking heavily and watching VH1 Behind the Music for hours. There seemed to be a standard story... The Band practices for years, has a hit song, becomes Rich and Famous, Starts Drinking and Using Drugs, Some Members Die, others get Clean and Sober... So, I thought, maybe I should stop drinking before I die. I started going to three meetings a day. I ran out of money and had to go live in Bidwell Park. I ate at the Jesus Center Free Meal and rode my bicycle all over town. I sold my Stock that I had bought while working but it took months to actually get paid. Eventually I did get paid just before Winter... and I moved back in to a Cheap Motel. 

I met many interesting people at those meetings. Some had very worthwhile advice. I found that by Listening to the G. O. D. (Group of Drunks) my life became much better. They suggested I move into an apartment that a member of the group had a spare bedroom. They Suggested that I Get a Job at the Factory where a member of the group was supervisor. They suggested that I Take a student loan from FAFSA and go to college, In Arcata, California. They Suggested that I quit smoking Marijuana, do my homework and attend class every time. They Suggested taking a Job after Graduation at the Welfare Office as an Eligibility Worker... So I worked there for 7 years and Paid off my student loan. When my father died, I quit work. He and I had become friends after I sobered UP. One of the reasons I continued working while he was alive was to make him proud of me. I remember one time we were driving around the neighborhood and he pointed at a house and said... "See, I Raised You Boys Right, That Man's Son Became a Merry Prankster." (A reference to Ken Kesey's Band of Merry Pranksters - who promoted the use of LSD Nationwide.) My Father was proud that I had a Good Job Doing Useful Work. We sold his house in San Jose for a Fortune. I was given a Trust Fund because my family was afraid that I would Smoke My Inheritance...   

I retired and had the freedom to do whatever I wanted to do. My "roommate" is self-supporting and she wanted to stay at home, play with her cats, go on the internet, talk on the phone, take photographs etc etc etc. For a decade I have been traveling by myself and taking photographs, then showing them to her when I got home... I was her eyes... That allowed her to go visit events without leaving home. I drove over to Chico and found my friend Mike. We went to the Rainbow Gathering in Utah. We had a wonderful time. I met a woman who was selling Self Help Seminars on the Internet. I Bought Admission for $5.00 a Week for a year. By that time I had learned Everything She Had to Teach. 

I spent the next couple of years traveling and publishing my photographs on a Blog. I wanted to provide Driving Directions to interesting places and events so people could go visit... and if they couldn't go visit (because they lived in Australia or something) they could see what I saw online. 

When the State of Oregon Legalized Recreational Marijuana I drove North 112 Miles and Bought some. I spent the next 8 months stoned 100% of the time. I used my Crazy Mind to write Absurdist Fiction... It was very popular on the internet and My Blog started to have 1,000 visitors a day... I believed that the increase in traffic was because I was doing interesting art and fiction... What I have come to realize is that My Success was mostly because I had FOOLED THE GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE to display my webpage for almost any search term. GOOGLE NOTICED MY TRICK AND CHANGED THE ALGORITHM. It is true that I thought up the idea while stoned... Marijuana DID allow me to THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX. and fool myself into believing that my fiction writing was wonderful. 

In Alcoholics Anonymous There are Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. Tradition TEN states that AA has no opinion on "Outside Issues." For Example: AA has no opinion about Smoking Marijuana. That's an "Outside Issue." I have attended countless meetings while stoned. HOWEVER, I Personally May Have an Opinion, and I Personally Can USE the Twelve Steps to Quit Smoking Tobacco, Marijuana and Sugar.... 

That's all for now... Thanks for Listening.
